Paragraph 1
This interview is about a man named Jared David Busby. He is 78 years old when this takes place. Jared was born the Berkshires and then moved to Warren and lived there for more then 40 years. This man only has a few regrets. One of them is that he did not pursue a career in law. The other is that he did not stay and live in the west. During Jared's childhood, his mother died while he was still young. After this happened his father had to hire a Negro woman to look after him and the rest of his brothers and sisters. Although the woman was great he still says that he misses his mother. Just as he states in the interview "Old Sal was pretty good to us children, but I missed my Ma." Jared was also a fighter. He said the greatest time of his life was when everything was against him. He was close to losing everything and falling, but he kept going with help from his religion. He said that he prayed to help him through it which tells me he was a very hard working, religious man.
Paragraph 2
My impressions of Jared are that he is a hard working, religious, and respectable man as I said in the first paragraph. I think this because he was close to falling down and becoming a nobody that did not care anymore. He has lost family ties, position and but he kept fighting. He never stopped praying and working to get himself out of the place he was. I also think that Jared has good values. He states in the interview "My solution of solving the troubles of the depression is that everyone should work, in the first place, and work hard. There is too much play, too much gambling and speculation. The panic was caused by the people depending on the country. It should be vice versa. The country should depend upon the people." I think that is a very morale and respectable thing to say in a time period when nothing seemed to work.
Part B

This picture is a great example of the Great Depression for a couple of reasons. The first being that people had nothing during this time. People would have to worry about where they were going to find shelter every night and where their meal was coming from. The next reason is that blacks were treated badly during this time. Even though the time period was bad, most whites were not living in houses like the ones these two African American boys were.
